Our pal Andrew Stuttaford tweeted a story about a CRISPR genetic engineering experiment from the Financial Times. I checked it out, and given the frequent criticisms I have penned here about ...

Transgenic organisms, created by introducing genes from one species to another, offer benefits in agriculture, medical research, and environmental applications, while raising ethical considerations.

The sections are: (1) Status of Genetic Information and Medicinal Procedures; (2) The Future of Basic and Applied Genetic Research; and (3) Ethical Values. The paper focuses attention on such problems ...

Unintentional genetic engineering - grafted plants trade genes Discover how genetically modifying plants through grafting merges genetic traits and challenges natural gene transfer beliefs.

Researchers used genetic engineering tools to create a virus that can enter specific neurons and insert into the prefrontal cortex a new genetic code that induces the production of modified ...

For example, genetic tinkering might help an animal facing a deadly virus or plague, not necessarily one facing habitat destruction. Erwin’s nationally recognized scholarship focuses on the ...

The one-child policy, Three Gorges dam, environmental engineering, Olympic sports schools and so on are all examples of this. Genetic engineering is the amalgamation of biology and engineering.
